Alpine Openstack Virtual Machine

This project helps creating an Alpine based Openstack image. It uses The alpine-make-vm-image script to build a disk image in QCOW2 format.

This image can then be uploaded to an openstack project with the following command:

> openstack --os-cloud mycloud image create --disk-format qcow2 --file alpine-openstack.qcow2 alpine-openstack

And a corresponding server can be created with:

openstack --os-cloud mycloud server create --key-name mykey --image alpine-openstack --flavor myflavor alpine

The Alpine Wiki contains a large amount of how-to guides and general information about administrating Alpine systems. See https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/.

You can setup the system with the command: setup-alpine
